Parliament has called for the respect of privacy of the speaker of parliament, Rebecca Kadaga who has since been admitted at Nakasero Hospital in Kampala.

According to a statement signed by The Principal Press Secretary to the Speaker, Sam Obbo Kadaga is admitted over fatigue-related illness.  The 62-year-old who got sick last evening had just returned from long trips in the Arab world and most recently, United States of America where she attended women conferences.

While abroad, she steadily advocated for better policies for women and children in Uganda and across the globe.

In 2011, Kadaga was admitted at International Hospital Kampala (IHK) but later recovered from the illness.

In 2008, it was reported that Kadaga collapsed aboard a plane before landing at Heathrow International Airport in London. The lawmaker, who is said to be diabetic, was reportedly treated from Watford General Hospital in London, United Kingdom.

President Museveni earlier today reportedly checked on the speaker at the hospital;
